Irena's Vow on Broadway
One woman's courageous choice will inspire you to believe in humanity again. Now her triumphant true story comes to the Broadway stage. One woman. Twelve lives. Only one choice.
Following a triumphant sold-out engagement, multiple Tony Award nominee Tovah Feldshuh returns to Broadway this spring in the critically acclaimed, tremendously moving new play, Irena's Vow. This riveting, life-affirming story is about one of the most courageous and unsung heroines of World War II. And this production marks Tovah Feldshuh's first return to the New York stage since her incomparable performance in Golda's Balcony.

Show Synopsis:
During the German occupation of Poland, Irena Gut Opdyke, a Polish Catholic woman, was forced to work as head housekeeper for a prominent German officer. Over a two-year period of service, Irena risked her own life in order to protect the lives of twelve Jewish refugees whom she secretly took under her care.

Summary Based on a true story, Irena's Vow is about a young Polish woman (played by Tovah Feldshuh) who bravely hid a dozen Jewish people in a German officer's home while she served as his housekeeper during World War II.
Our Recommendation Although playwright Dan Gordon occasionally resorts to cliches and manipulative tactics in re-telling this true tale, the little-known story of an unsung woman's sacrifice during the Holocaust is still very inspiring and goes to show what feats of strength people are capable of in seemingly impossible circumstances.
